God, Do you Really Care...

Finding Strength when He seems distant...

“Wake up, O Lord! ... Why do you ignore our suffering and oppression?” —Psalm 44: 23-24


Join Dean Welch for this powerful study by Dr. Tony Evans as you seek to understand that God really does care. Questioning God is nothing new. Since biblical times men and women have entertained doubts about His heart, His attentiveness, and His intentions. We demand answers to our cries of Why, God? and How long do I have to endure this?

God is not put off or intimidated by your questions. He wants you to be real with Him. But He also wants to be real with you. And that means assuring you that He cares. In hard times and sickness, in fear and confusion, in pain and disappointment. It matters not what you face, but, rather, whom you choose to face. As you seek His comfort, you’ll also find His challenge. Jesus cares too much to leave you where you’re at. So the question is yours to answer: Will you believe Him for life beyond what you’ve ever experienced? That’s the question we’ll consider in this study.

A Heart Like His by Beth Moore

Would you like to know the heart of God?

 

Join Dean Welch in this 8-week series of lessons from A Heart Like His, Beth Moore’s in-depth study on the life of David, “a man after God’s own heart.”  In these lessons, we will take an intimate, exciting journey through virtually every astonishing episode of David’s remarkable life. From shepherd, to refugee, to king of Israel, David exhibited the purest virtues and the most heinous sinfulness. But through it all, his relationship with the Lord continued to grow. A Heart Like His looks at this bond of mutual love and admiration from today’s perspective and draws spiritual insight and understanding from a man who boldly fulfilled his divine destiny.

The Papa Prayer
by Larry Crabb
The Papa Prayer is a relational, conversational approach to talking with and enjoying God. Have you ever asked God for something He didn’t give or maybe asked questions like this: "God, where are You?" "Are You listening to me? Do You know what's going on in my life? Do You care? Do I even know who You are?"  Larry Crabb uses PAPA as an acrostic to develop a four-fold model of relational prayer.
P suggests: "Present Yourself to God,"
A is for "Attend to How You're Thinking of God," the second P relates to "Purge Yourself of Anything That Blocks Your Relationship with God," and the second A teaches readers to "Approach God As the `First Thing' in Life."
